People make mistakes all the time - it's part of being hooman. Cats, on the other hand, never make mistakes, but that's a subject for a different article. What's impurrtant about mistakes, though, is not that they happen, but that they don't happen again. A few months ago, we posted about a cute black cat in a banana costume being turned away from a PetSmart "trick-or-treating" pet event, but it turns out, by "pets", they only meant doggos. Banana Cat returned home, sad and confused, and the cat community made their voices heard. Justice for Banana Cat!

Well, it's Christmastime now, and PetSmart seems to have corrected its ways. During a Christmas pet party, a cat pawrent took her two void kitties to the event, and not only were they allowed in, but they had a hissterically terrible time. But, was anyone really surprised by that? No! If there's one thing cats despise, it's being dressed up in annoying hats and outfits, no matter how cute they look in them. They did get lots of attention and Churus, so even if they didn't show it, we're pretty sure they had a good time.

Congratulations, PetSmart, you righted a purrfectly egregious error and made feline fans everywhere laugh. A merry Catmas to all, and to all, a good night!

  • A cute banana cat showed up at a local PetSmart trick-or-treat event, only to be turned away because the "pet" event was only meant for dogs. Well, cats are pets too, aren't they? They went home with a very disappointed kitty, and the cat community came to their aid by making a furrmal complaint to PetSmart and showing off all their cute costumed cats to make the sad banana feel better. But now, it seems that PetSmart has corrected its ways, so now cats are free to come and have a purrfectly awwful time, if they so choose.

  • They may not have had a great time, but it was their choice not to have a good time! Having the option is always best, but at least the hoomans around got a real kick out of their hissterical outfits and purrfectly grumpy faces!

    Libra0918 I wish I had seen these at PetSmart yesterday! I would have terrorized my cat Pineapple with a new hat. Please see my totally unimpressed boy wearing his santa hat from Xmas 2020.

    Best-Hair-869 I didn't know they have holiday parties for animals at Petsmart. I'd love to bring my cat, but he would absolutely lose his mind. I think.

    Teddy_Doodle Hilarious! You're right. They don't look like they're having fun. They seem so well behaved though. Just sitting there in the basket in their little Christmas headgear. Cute kitties!
